But really, just what is a tire pressure check kit? It doesn't say "pressure gauge" or anything like that. The picture shows someone airing up his tires using a small compressor, but I'm pretty sure they're not shipping compressors.

It'd be funny if it were just a card that reminds you to check your tire pressure...

Hey where's the Obama bashing on this one? After the hilarious Obama wallet last week, we should be rolling on the floor over the obvious connection between this and Obama's earlier statement about how we should keep our tires inflated! Hankook must be getting a government kick-back, which means all good red-blooded Americans will retaliate against this government infiltration by running their tires below recommended pressure! That will show 'em for sure!

@manoshevitz: +2 thinking same ~ couldn't find anywhere on the site what they were giving away ... BUT for free, what the heck, why not ~ these are the tires that came stock on my SUV, so winning a free set would be a major bonus!! now if only we could get a free set of motorcycle tires from them too :P

In for one myself!! Free is good!! just remember to give them a junk email account ~ you dont have to enter a ph. # ~ just put in "n/a", but obviously they are gonna need a physical address 2 send your free stuff to.

I once got a couple of Hankook tires from the Tire Rack for my friend's Maxima. Seemed to be pretty good tires, inexpensive and didn't need high speed broadband to make them work. They were Mac compatable too!

Also make sure you click 'no' next to where they ask if you want to receive promotional information from them. That is right under where you enter your personal information. Unless you want their stuff, then you can just skip to the end.

It looks like they are raffling off 5 sets of tires Jan. 5, Feb. 4 and March 4. So 15 in all.

Handy I suppose if your existing tire pressure gauge broke or you want a spare, but otherwise, it's a pretty one-sided exchange of personally identifying information for a cheap knick-knack (if indeed that's what you get).

@stevec5000: So you live in the middle of nowhere - or at least somewhere remote enough to not have previously had internet access - and you are waiting to pay for it?
Because if you paid attention, you would know that is what was promised.

They probably send you an inaccurate tire guage so it will wear your tires and you will have to buy new ones.

Realistically, I have had several sets of Hankook tires on my pickups and they were the best for getting around in the snow. Seemed to wear a little faster than name brands, but also were quite a bit cheaper.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
